Sussex Regional Access Centre

Welcome

We offer needs assessments and training for students receiving the Disabled Students' Allowance.

Easily reached from Brighton, we are a campus-based, University service for students from any area or institution.

About Us

Sussex Regional ACCESS Centre (SRAC) is located in Lancaster House at the University of Sussex and has been supporting students since 1997.

SRAC provides needs assessments and training on assistive technology to students in receipt of the DSA, including prospective students.

Follow-up support is included in our assessment fee of £555 (no VAT), which is paid out of the DSA and is over £100 lower than the new maximum fee introduced by the government for January 2016. The fee includes support for additional needs which may develop and review of DSA support for the duration of the original course, including liaison with funding bodies, equipment suppliers, Disability Officers etc.

We keep in touch with students in order to monitor how effective the recommended support has been and we welcome contact from students with updated information.

SRAC operates within the quality assurance framework of DSA-QAG and maintains an extensive range of up to date assistive technology and equipment.
